There was a thunderclap on the flat ground, and the entire ninja world was shocked by the news of Konoha and Sand Hide.

The two ninja villages, the two big countries, actually merged?

The other three ninja villages of the five major countries are okay, and their shadows and high-level leaders at least knew about this matter in advance.

Those small countries, as well as small and medium-sized ninja forces, were all frightened by this news.

Konoha was originally the strongest in the ninja world, and now with the addition of Sand Hidden in a five major ninja village, with such a size, such strength, other countries and forces on the continent, is there still a way to live?

The shock is far more than that, when the people who received the news were still digesting this earth-shattering change that completely changed the situation on the mainland, Konoha created an even more shocking news.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Land of the Wind announced their abdication and handed over the rule of the country to the fourth generation of Konoha Hokage Yellow Ape.

Half an hour after the news of the abdication, Konoha released a "Letter to All the People".

In this announcement, it was announced that the privileged hierarchy of daimyo and nobility would be abolished, and the new country after the fusion of the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind would be a new country where everyone was equal in law, regardless of origin, only in terms of talent!

On this day, great changes unseen in a thousand years bloomed on this continent.

"This daimyo and nobility will be gone in the future? We, the ninjas, have become the masters of this country? ”

"Stupid! Give me a good look at the announcement, and in the future the masters of this country will be all the people. ”

"Without those nobles, what will we do with the tasks entrusted in the future?"

At the bulletin board in the center of Konoha, the villagers who heard the news blocked the water around the place.

In the face of this earth-shattering change, some people rejoice, some people worry, and some people are indifferent.

I am happy that I will never have to face those foolish nobles who are high up in the future, and I am worried that without the nobles, will the number of tasks entrusted in the future drop significantly?

"I'm sure Hokage-sama will think about this!" A die-hard supporter of the yellow ape, said confidently.

As soon as this person's words came out, the people around him showed a look of approval.

Everyone doesn't understand big things, but there is one thing that everyone has personally experienced, that is, the four generations of Hokage Yellow Ape-sama, whether it is before or after taking office, every proposal and reform initiated not only did not harm everyone's interests, but improved everyone's lives.

"Such a large piece of land, without those noble officials, can we and those guys in Shayin manage it alone?"

When it comes to fighting, killing, and killing, the ninjas present are very confident, but when it comes to management and construction, these "professional soldiers" are really inexperienced.

"Ahem! Do you know the Konoha Cultural School that was just established in the village? A middle-aged man, after coughing lightly and attracting the attention of the people around him, said with a slight expression and ostentation.

"Yes!"

"What happened to that school?"

"Eight leisure, if you have something to say, say it quickly!"

After setting up a full shelf, under the urging of the people around him, Baxian said: "The old captain of our squad was transferred to the ninja school as a teacher due to injury. Some time ago, he was transferred by the village to the new school to take charge of management. ”

Speaking of this, the middle-aged ninja who loved to show off and fiddle with it stopped again and looked around.

Looking at the eager eyes of everyone who were about to beat people, he only looked around at half of Baxian, and hurriedly continued: "The captain told me that the school has a management major, and the students who study this major are specially trained by the village to replace those noble officials and manage the country. ”

"Is this true?" Ninjas with children at home came forward one after another.

Compared with the extremely risky ninja career of letting unqualified children in the family go to the knife and lick blood, it is obviously a better choice to send children to a management major in a cultural school and let them work as officials after graduation.

It's good to be an official! There is no danger, the welfare is good, the heart is black, and you can make a lot of money!

"Of course! I have sent my youngest son in. At the mention of this, Baxian's face was full of pride.

With envious eyes, there was a middle-aged ninja with a scar on his face, and asked with concern, "What conditions do you need to study management?" ”

"Over the age of eight, you can read and write, and you can pass the exam! However, this cultural school has a long time to study, with eight years of study and then two years of internship before graduating. ”

Decade? It's quite long, but it's completely affordable for these ninja families.

"Eight leisure, that cultural school, is it still recruiting people now?" Someone asked impatiently.

"I don't know about this, you can go to the school and ask." Hachixian replied.

Many people showed thoughtful expressions, thinking in their hearts, should they send all the children in their families to cultural schools?

This is a ninja, how can you be an official!

There are wise people who have left the crowd silently,

Soon, news spread in the village that the new cultural school was being established to train officials.

For a while, as long as it was a ninja with a little relationship, or the villagers, they began to ask someone to inquire about the authenticity of the news.

Such public opinion quickly spread to the upper echelons of the village and to the yellow ape.

"Yellow Ape, about the public opinion in the village, should we intervene to stop it?" As the principal of the new school, Sarutobi asked with concern.

"Isn't that a good thing? When we recruited our first batch of students, it took a lot of effort. Now that this public opinion is out, there will be no worries about the source of students in the future. Sitting on the sofa with coffee in his hand, the yellow ape said with a smile.

"However, if the ninjas send their children to the culture school, what about the ninja school? If there are fewer people willing to become ninjas, we will have fewer troops available in the future. ”

As an older generation, Sarutobi's thinking has been stuck in the Warring States and Ninja Village eras, and in his opinion, it is absolutely unacceptable for a ninja village to start declining if the number of new ninjas in a ninja village begins.

"After reunification, the country will not need so many ninjas. We just need to cultivate elites who are suitable for the path of ninjas. Yellow Ape explained.

"That's it." Ape Feiri hesitated.

"Teacher Ape Fei, after the reunification of the country, do you think we will still have so many entrusted tasks? Losing the mission commission, a large number of ninjas, what should they do for a living? The yellow ape threw out the question.

Faced with the Yellow Ape's question, Ape Fei Ri Slash fell silent, and he couldn't help but feel numb at the thought that the ninja villages of various countries together might be close to the number of ninjas of 100,000.

With a sharp decline in mission assignments, how can so many ninjas feed them?

You can't arrange for some of the ninjas to retire directly, right?

These are ninjas who have killed people and seen blood! If they simply and rudely cancel their ninja status and let them find a way to make a living on their own, it will cause a big mess.

What kind of things a group of ninjas who have lost their income and can't find a suitable job to support their families will do, Sarutobi can guess without thinking about it.

The wandering ninjas and traitors who wander around the country do everything for money.

Not to mention, there is also a special bounty mission, and the strongholds are located all over the continent.

"Yellow Ape, have you made any plans with Mr. Kashima regarding the arrangements for these ninjas?" Sarutobi asked with concern.

Nodding, the yellow ape looked confident.

"The task delegation system will be retained, but in the future, only civil tasks that comply with the law can be issued. All military missions such as battles, assassinations, intelligence detectives, etc., can only be released by the official.

At the same time, we will conduct an internal survey of all ninjas in the coming months, and assign them to non-combat units according to their strengths.

In addition, sheriffs and subordinate security teams will be set up throughout the country to be responsible for local law and order management. These sheriffs and vigilantes will be served by ninjas who have been transferred. ”

"In that case, will our financial expenditure be too large?" Ape Fei Ri asked worriedly.

"We're not just a ninja village now, Sarutobi-sensei! The country will be run by us, and whether it is tax revenue or government business, it will greatly increase our fiscal revenue. ”

"Looks like I'm really old!"

Such a simple question, I actually ignored it, and Ape Fei Ri Chop once again felt his aging and backwardness.
